If the expense of games like Mega Pillions is too high a risk, then I'm thrilled to announce the launch of Lucky Pills, our brand-new Vicodin raffle game! Whether you're a Vicodin connoisseur or just looking to try your luck, this is your chance to win big!
16:08:01 - 02/09/24 You sent 68x Vicodin to Turtleranger55 with the message: You won the Lucky Pills drawing on 9/2!
How to Play:
Send Vicodin to Mr_Hemsley [3149074]: One Vicodin = One raffle ticket. You can enter buy as many entry tickets as you want!
Automatic Ticket Assignment: Your raffle ticket numbers will be assigned automatically based on the order in which I receive Vicodin. For example, if the prize pool has 100 Vicodin and you send me 50 Vicodin, you'll be assigned numbers 101 through 150.
Notification: I will message you your ticket numbers as soon as they are assigned and I'm on my PC (you will receive a message within 24 hours).
Why Join Lucky Pills?
Mug-Proof Winnings: Unlike the Casino lottery, your winnings are sent to you as Vicodin which cannot be mugged!
Transparency: The Google spreadsheet ensures you can always see the latest ticket count and prize pool. I will post a copy of the log showing that the prize was delivered to the winner.
Fairness: Ticket numbers are assigned based on the exact order I receive your Vicodin. Unlike with Mega Pillions, there will always be a winner when Lucky Pills is over.
Excitement: The more Vicodin you send, the higher your chances of winning!

Stay tuned for updates, and may the odds be ever in your favor!
Thanks for the input! Your math is correct about winning the jackpot, it’s low. Just like the IRL lottery (which has odds at 1 in 306 million). Mind that the jackpot will get higher as more people enter. I just started this so I put up my own 100 Xanax to start the pot.
I put the odds at the bottom of the second post. Unless my math is bad, your odds of winning the torn daily lotto are about the same as winning two Xanax here. Your odds of winning the torn weekly lotto are lower than winning the jackpot here. I want to be transparent about how this works so I appreciate you sharing your criticisms. As this project develops I will use feedback like this to make sure that it’s a fun balance of risk/reward, just like the lottery.
I reached the 20% tax based off the IRL 34% tax on lotteries. 34% seemed too high to me so I just landed on 20%. If you won a pot of say, 10,000 Xanax, you’d still be winning 8,000 Xanax. But I hear what you’re saying and I’ll take it to the team. Thank you again!
IF NO ONE WINS THE JACKPOT, THEN THE JACKPOT KEEPS GROWING. THE IDEA OF THIS GAME IS TO HAVE SOMEONE EVENTUALLY WIN A MEGA PILLIONS JACKPOT AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF XANAX, JUST LIKE THE MEGAMILLIONS LOTTERY.
How to Play:
Pick 4 different numbers between 1 and 20.
Pick a fifth number between 1 and 10 ("Power ball").
Send 1 Xanax to Mr_Hemsley [3149074] and INCLUDE your numbers by selecting "add message".
Each ticket you buy goes into the pot; the pot grows with more tickets.
You can enter as many times as you like!
How to Win:
If any of your numbers match the winning numbers, you win! Match all four numbers plus your power number to win the jackpot! (Say it 5 times fast: Overnight Multi Billionaire!)
Note - your first four numbers can match any of the four winning numbers regardless of place. The power number must match exactly.
Why Play?:
Your odds of doubling your money are better with Mega Pillions than they are in any of the Casino lotteries! Your chance to win a jackpot is better than your chance of winning the monthly pot, and the Jackpot here is way bigger! Plus weekly draws and winners!
Important:
The winning numbers will always be five different numbers (example: they will never be 4, 4, 4, 4), so make sure you pick five different numbers.
Tickets are valid for one drawing only. After the weekly draw, buy more tickets for the next draw!
If no one wins the jackpot, the pot continues to grow until someone finally wins the jackpot! (Say it again: Overnight Multi Billionaire!)
Total RNG:
The winning numbers are completely RNG. I use ChatGPT with the prompt "Draw four random numbers between 1 and 20, then draw a fifth power ball between 1 and 10." I use a new chat every time I generate the numbers to eliminate any potential AI bias.
Understanding the Odds:
The odds are calculated in excel using the formula =COMBIN(20,4)*10 (for jackpot). The odds of winning the Mega Pillions jackpot are better than winning a PI in the Casino, or winning jackpot on the slots. They are roughly equal to the odds of winning any of the three "lotteries" (which are technically raffles). I've worked hard based on my own calculations and discussions with many of you to develop odds that are fair, but that also will promote higher jackpots. There probably will not be a jackpot winner every week, but in an effort to offset your risk, I've added a prize for matching the power ball. You have a 1:10 chance to play for free, which is far better odds than any of the Torn Casino games (I encourage you to check the math yourself).
Odds:
Jackpot: 1 / 48,450
Match 4: 1 / 4,845
Match 3: 1 / 1,140
Match 2: 1 / 190
Powerball only: 1 / 10 (aka, 10%)
I appreciate everyone who has played so far. It's been a tough balance to try and make sure that the odds are fair, but to make sure that the jackpot generally grows rather than depletes due to lesser payouts. I appreciate any and all feedback, please join the discord to chime in!
**Unlike most traders, I base my prices on actualprices. Most people promise to pay 100% market value. Prices are easily manipulated though, and so you sell an item for 110% "market value" and the trader still makes a killer profit because the item actually sells for 5x that amount! I base my prices on market trends, so you will always get the best price when you sell to me!**

On October 31, I logged into Torn to find Proxima had accomplished the impossible—summoning M’aol, an ancient, forbidden force whispered of only in dark corners of the city forums; my screen flickered as a message appeared: “M’aol is here... and you are not safe.”
Due largely to my own person issues I've not been able to market this week. If you want a chance to join the other 50% of the winners then please get your tickets in! All winnings have been paid to date!
